Do the educators leading the instruction need to submit a separate application to earn recognition as Common Sense Educators?

Last Updated: Nov 17, 2017 09:51AM PST

We have streamlined this process. If educators have met Common Sense Educator criteria, the school project lead has the option to upload a Teacher Worksheet Excel doc and apply on behalf of the educators. Entries must be added individually; please do not cut and paste entries into the cells.

Project leads will receive detailed instructions on how and where to upload the Excel doc after they submit a Common Sense School Application. Please be sure to check "Yes" when asked "Are you submitting information on behalf of individual educators to earn recognition as Common Sense Educators?" in the Common Sense School Application. If you check "Yes" you will receive an email within 24 hours with further instructions and your School Application ID to include on column A of the Teacher Worksheet.

Common Sense Education will email all educators directly after the Common Sense School Application has been submitted and reviewed. Please allow two weeks for educators to be notified. Educators do have the option of submitting their applications prior to and separate from the School Application.

Please note: If the project lead has met Common Sense Educator Criteria, he/she should include his/her name on the Teacher Worksheets.
